Multi-Society Task Force Recommendation: Colonoscopy Prep for Low Risk Individuals

Given that we are currently in “March is CRC Awareness Month”, you can access the latest colonoscopy prep recommendations for people at LOW RISK for having complications. As always, if you are viewing as a patient prepping for a colonoscopy, it is imperative that you discuss any changes to your health system’s guidance BEFORE you consider following these guidelines. If you are a physician/health care provider, this paper is a free download and being provided as potential guidance when discussing with patients. Thank you to Dr. Fola May (C4 Board Member) for being a part of this Task Force.

One goal is to get the best prep in the most people so everyone can avoid the need for additional colonoscopies at frequencies possibly greater than a patient’s risk would otherwise suggest are needed.
